You eat eight spiders every year in your sleep. True?

Nope, says MythBusters. There's no evidence that spiders secretly crawl into our mouths while we're sleeping. Even if you were lying perfectly still, your breathing would scare a spider off, so it's unlikely to hang out around your mouth. Alas, the bad news: You probably consume more spiders when you are awake -- in your food. Here's why: The Food and Drug Administration guidelines allow a certain level of whole insects or parts in some food products, such as those containing fruits or vegetables. Yum.

Heather ...How about this for freaking you out: When I was in Florence eating at what my studying-abroad-friends called "The Tasty Sandwich Shop", I saw a slug on my lettuce in my sandwich! EWWW! I had to throw the whole thing out. My friends assured me that just meant that the produce was fresh. Too fresh for me!
